J-Live: "The Authentic" (Video)

J-Live's latest album, S.P.T.A. (Said Person of That Ability), is his most ambitious yet. Across its 13 tracks, he embraces the three sides of his career as a producer, rapper, and DJ. On some tracks, though, he lets other beatsmiths handle the instrumentals. Like on "The Authentic," for example, which is produced by Marco Polo. His raw beat serves as the perfect backdrop for J-Live's three identities to come to life, just as they do in the track's music video. It features some pretty creative camera tricks as you watch the rapper, DJ, and producer sides of the New Yorker make their case for being the illest. Watch the video below.
